Ochocinco Gets 30 Days for Butt Slap

This one is a little strange to me. The judge basically eggs him on and then reacts to what he does. She must have not wanted to go with this deal and this was her way of not. If that’s what she wanted then she should have just refused the deal in the first place. I’m not a fan of those with power trying to egg people into doing something stupid.

Did you hear what happened to Chad Ochocinco today? Well, we got the sound bite for this, too, but I gotta find it. Hang on just a second. Chad Ochocinco, it was yesterday in Ft. Lauderdale, Broward County. Chad Ochocinco, he’s been in trouble ever since he left the New England Patriots. He went to the Miami Dolphins. He got cut. He got married, and then a few short days after was in a dispute over beating up his wife, and they got divorced, and he’s been issued various court orders to stay away from her, to shape up, ship out, any number of things.

Yesterday he was in court where he was sentenced to 30 days in jail for a probation violation in a domestic violence case, and the ruling as originally announced by the judge was favorable, no jail time, and Chad Ochocinco then slapped his lawyer on the butt, like football players do on the field, “Way to go, dude, way to go.” And the judge saw it and didn’t like it and then the courtroom started laughing and the judge said, “You find this funny, Mr. Ochocinco?” And she ended up sending him to jail because he mocked the court.
